So this means we have at least 2 different problems. Can you increase netcfg's timeout? Does "iwlist scan" (as root) show anything?

I think I tried increasing the timeout (although I don't remember to which value, I'll try again). I did try iwlist wlan0 scan and it worked without problems (I didn't see my AP but that's because it doesn't broadcast essid).

Ah, then I was right and you need active scans to find it, and those are disabled if you don't have crda and the right regulations set, see the output of "iw list".

And this is new with 2.6.29? Because I know that the optional dependency of kernel26 on crda has been there for some time and I haven't needed crda yet. When I'm running 2.6.28 not having crda installed and having AP hidden, everything works without problems.
